24、part of our cultural life. It has come to seem like a ceremony of passage for the successful male, a red symbol of courage in midlife. Six hundred thousand bypass operations are performed a year in the United States. After a bypass, most heart patients experience significant relief from the peculiar
25、 discomfort in the chest caused by insufficient blood to the heart muscle. In some cases the surgery can dramatically extend life. American heart patients, who now number about 12 million, are enthusiastic about the surgery. Bypass is one of the most common major operations in America. In private, h
26、owever, many of my fellow workers in medicine suspect that bypass has become too popular. A recent Harvard study showed that as many as two-thirds of patients referred for bypass dont need it or could have it postponed. In Canada and Britain, where physicians perform bypass surgery much less frequen
27、tly than they do in America,heart patients fare just as well. In addition, bypassing a blocked section of an artery does nothing to ;prevent the artery (动脉 ) from getting clogged somewhere else. In fact, bypass surgery can accelerate the development of new blockage. But bypass did not have to prove
28、itself. It has become hugely popular. Voices of caution were drowned out as more and more hospitals raced to offer bypass. By 1979,100 000: bypasses a year were taking place, and 10 years later the figure has risen to 260 000. Medical students were keen to train in cardiac (心脏的 ) surgery; for all th
29、e hard training, it was a advancing ,challenging field. In fact, the rewards are handsome. There is more money to be made performing this surgery than there is in practicing in almost any other field of medicine. The idea of bold surgeons reaching into our bodies to save a wounded heart cannot but e
30、xert a powerful grip on our imaginations, as if we are witnessing a cultural ceremony where two overachieving individualssurgeon and patientcome together, Bypass may indeed be both a life-extending and pain-relieving procedure for many patients. But perhaps it has transfixed us for too long. 31 Acco
31、rding to the passage, a bypass surgery is _. （ A） a dangerous operation （ B） a painful experience （ C） a symbol of ones success and courage （ D） nothing serious 32 From the second paragraph, we can see that the author is _. （ A） one of the heart patients （ B） a boss in pharmacy （ C） a teacher in Har
32、vard University （ D） a medical worker 33 What conclusion can we come to, according to the passage? （ A） In a sense we may call the United States a “bypass nation“. （ B） In Canada and the U.K. bypass operations are less performed because their medical levels are relatively lower. （ C） Bypass operatio
33、ns can solve the heart patients problems once and for all. （ D） Recent study shows that nearly all of the bypass operations in the United States are proved useless and needless. 34 Bypass operation has become very popular in the United States because _. （ A） it is one of the most common major operat
34、ions （ B） it is more effective than any other medicine （ C） the standard of living in America is much higher than that in any other country （ D） it can bring more money to the hospitals and doctors 35 In the third paragraph, the word “handsome“ actually mean _. （ A） beautiful （ B） considerable （ C）
35、poor （ D） good-looking 36 In the last paragraph the author implies that _. （ A） the popularity of bypass operation has its profound financial reasons （ B） doing bypass operation makes a doctor famous （ C） we shouldnt have blind faith in anything even if it is good （ D） receiving a bypass operation m
36、akes a person satisfied 36 More American mothers than ever are working, and more workers are mothers. Yet their march into the world of paid work continues to cause suspicion. One recent survey found that 48 percent of Americans believe that preschoolers suffer if their mothers work, while another f
37、ound that 42 percent of employed parents think that working mothers care more about succeeding at work than meeting their childrens needs. All mothers deserve our support-those who care for children at home and those who have joined the work force. But many working mothers continue to believe that t
38、hey are shortchanging (少找钱 )their children. They shouldnt. Research tells us that kids do just fine when mothers work. Suzanne Bianchi a scientist of the University of Maryland, has found that mothers today spend as much if not more time with their children than they did in 1965, even though the per
39、centage of mothers who work rose from 35 percent to 71 percent. Then there are the obvious financial benefits. For many children, these earnings are the difference between living in povertyor out of it. The kids are all right. Studies conducted by the University of Michigan have consistently demonst
40、rated that a childs social or academic competence does not depend on whether a mother is employed. In my research four out of five children (nine out of ten in single parent families) told me that having a working mother was their preferred arrangement. My study found that children with working moth
41、ers are no more likely to drop out, take drugs, break the law, or experiment with sex prematurely than children with non-employed mothers. Children have taken their mothers example to heart. Ninety percent of the young women I interviewed said they hoped to combine work with motherhood, while two-th
42、irds of the men said they wanted to share parenting and work. Sadly, children support working mothers more than we do as a society. Parental leave and child-care benefits in the United States remain inadequate, particularly when compared to whats offered in other countries. Children thrive when thei
43、r mothers have satisfying, well-paid jobs when they can count on other caretakers to share the load. The challenge facing us is thus not whether good workers can also be good mothers, but whether we can create the conditions that enable working mothers and fathers to be good parents. 37 From the fir
44、st paragraph, we can see that _. （ A） now more American mothers are working than any time in American history and anywhere else in the world （ B） more than half Americans think that before going to school, children need their mothers whole-hearted care （ C） a majority of Americans believe that once
45、working outside home mothers think of their own work more than their children （ D） more American mothers work than ever before, but this problem of working mothers has not been solved satisfactorily 38 In paragraph two, the author thinks that _. （ A） society should support all mothers no matter wher
46、e they workat home or outside it （ B） working mothers are doing less for their children （ C） we should do more research on this problem （ D） working mothers should be proud 39 From the passage, we can not find the proof of the fact that _. （ A） now mothers do their household work just as well as the
47、y did before （ B） with their mothers working, children are better off （ C） lack of mothers care, children like to go astray （ D） in single-parent families, most children like their mothers go out working 40 In the last paragraph, “Parental leave and child-care benefits in the United States remain in
48、adequate“ actually refers to _. （ A） parents should not leave and pay more care to their children （ B） parental leave and child-care is contradicted （ C） children have inadequate care from their parents （ D） in the United States, parents enjoy inadequate child-care leave and allowance 41 What do the
49、 Americans need in solving the problem of working mothers? （ A） They need the support of males. （ B） They need the understanding of other members of their families. （ C） They need young people to be well-prepared to work both in and outside their homes. （ D） They need especially the powerful support of the society for working mothers. 42 What is the main idea of the passage? （ A） We should let mothers work without worry
